Work in the horror genre

Head is best known for his work in the British horror genre, notably his leading roles in the films Theatre of Fear, the Sony Pictures dinosaur thriller Jurassic Predator[7] and the mockbuster Exorcist Chronicles. Theatre of Fear entered the Asda UK DVD charts at number 19[8] and Exorcist Chronicles gained recognition in America upon its release via Time Warner Cable. Both films received positive reviews from Silver Screen magazine, Scream magazine and Rue Morgue magazine[9] as well as being featured in The Guardian[10] and leading genre publication Fangoria magazine, Exorcist Chronicles' popularity led to Head appearing on BBC Merseyside to talk about his love for the horror genre and his years of experience in acting in horror prosthetics, creature makeup and special effects makeup.[11]
